[missing-sync-pocketpc-talk] Pocket Informant

[Brett Palmer]

After looking at the differences between Agenda Fusion and Pocket
Informant, it seems as though Pocket Informant does almost what I
envision.  As someone pointed out previously, Pocket Informant does
create a bar across multiple days in month calendar view, yet I am
wanting multiple color bars.

I downloaded a trial version of Pocket Informant and installed it on a
Pocket PC floating around the office. Here is what I wrote the company
that makes Pocket Informant:

The purpose of this email is to request a feature for Pocket Informant.
I would greatly appreciate it if you would forward this email to your
software development team for review.

This is how Outlook looks on my work laptop in Month-view.

This is how I would like Pocket Informant to display in month view. Your
software is very close to what I envision. I have tweaked it a bit. This
is a mock up of what I envision.  I work primarily from a month-view and
seeing multiple color bars would be really helpful. Yours only displays
one color bar. I have added multiple color bars across multiple days. I
have also made the appointment bars smaller and moved them up to
accommodate the bars.

Thanks for the email. Yes, this has been a long standing request and the
only thing keeping us from it is the lack of space to ensure we don't
cover up the normal time bars.
We are looking at alternatives such as a mode which only shows multi-day
bars.
